The Straits Times, the English flagship daily of SPH, has been serving readers for more than a century. Launched on July 15, 1845, its comprehensive coverage of world news, East Asian news, Southeast Asian news, home news, sports news, financial news and lifestyle updates makes The Straits Times the most-read newspaper in Singapore.
Congratulations to you make it to be a good doctor. Never looked down on yourself.
This young man shown to the Singapore society everyone has an opportunity, it is whether we want to strive to seize that opportunity and be who we want to be.
Well done, young men & women. Very happy for you all.
doesnt “normal stream” sound like a backhanded compliment?
LOL what kind of elitist BS is this? So because he was in the normal class in Secondary school. Expectations were he would be a nobody? The doctor who went to secondary 5?! Like oh my god. it's a miracle .
Straits Times probably means no harm and is trying to encourage people, but that title is so misleading, makes it sound like Sec 5 is a bad position to be in.
Exactly, he went to sec 5 not pathlight. As if a normal acad student can't do well and become a Dr. Sec 5 students take the same paper as express students. Only a year later. Sheesh.
When I read the title and was thinking the same as u.. Are they trying to say only express students can be doctors??
@@jen5138 are you yourself looking down on pathlight?
Congratulations Doc! I'm a believer in the need for failure to be practically and effectively successful. Academic success is not enough and have the inclination of creating robotic practitioners. Well done! We need more like you👏👏👏.
Well done, doctor!!!
hello , this gentleman also eventually became a high scorers , if not , how u think he will qualify?
@@alexfreakie6728yes. Luckily so. If not, he may be condemned. In our society, people are judged by the schools they attend, the cars they drive, the place they live in. So what if a person is helpful or filial? There is little value attached to that
honey im sorry but u think you dont need to be a high scorer to get into medicine and stay in medicine?
I have a friend thats a orthopedist and he was from NT stream, everyone thought he was an idiot.
Thank you doctor good job
They are never die l think always happy
For along day
How to "one-up" this story? Find a lawyer/doctor that was in Normal Tech
Unlikely to get
Very easy to be lawyer
Not sure why many have misunderstood the moral of the story!
Don't give up kids
Next : Can ST do a series on how children of Country Leaders become Leaders of the country?
But if children of the country leaders did not become leaders how to do series
